Background Info: Bloomberg to New Mothers: You Really Should Be Breastfeeding, You Know – Katie Pavlich (Townhall.com). Don’t you all feel safer knowing that a politician is making your decisions for you? He must be a modern day superman to be able to know so much about everyone’s well being. Well, maybe just another Barney Fife, but with lots of money. Cross-posted: TobyToons.com

In the wake of the mass shooting in Aurora Colorado many are still trying to get over the shock of the horrible event. The stories of the shooting victims have made most of us come to tears, like the Six year old girl who was shot, and the man who died on his birthday. To most of America, using this to advance a political | Read More »

CISPA’s proponents bent over backward to respond to reasonable complaints, but the extremists are still complaining. Anonymous and Mozilla (much of which is foreign, no?) are whining, but nobody ever points to any specific, offending verbiage of the bill. Am I the only one who reads tech bills before complaining about them? Even Democrats are having to start acknowledging Republican expertise in tech leadership, though. | Read More »

I’m seeing some real panicked shouting online about CISPA, a new bill that some are calling “the new SOPA.” It’s absurd. The bill may not be perfect. It could have flaws. But the argument being hammered against CISPA again and again is that it may be used against copyright infringers who abuse networks. So? The only reason to oppose that is if you wish to | Read More »

It is a good thing that elected officials know so much about how to run our lives. First trans-fats, then salt, then sugary drinks, then Alcohol (well, almost). NY City Mayor Bloomberg may as well pick up the hatchet used by Carry Nation on her crusades in the 1920’s. For more information on the topic, see Caleb Howe’s article here: The Great Bloomberg Booze Backlash | Read More »

Cowards have no business making hard choices. They are psychologically, physiologically and spiritually deficient, and cannot (are incapable) of making the right choice. They are not built for it — because they are cowards. Furthermore, they are so afraid, they will not allow those with courage to make the right choice for them. Cowardliness is rampant in the West and epidemic in the Western financial | Read More »

The scuttlebutt on the street isn’t pretty, but America is resilient and our problems can be fixed, but not while Obama is Captain of our ship. His second stimulus isn’t paid for and will cost taxpayers billions of dollars; so that’s not a solution. A second stimulus is like putting a couple of old used batteries in the “energizer bunny,” and praying that it will | Read More »

A complete month has passed since the “Occupy Wall Street” protestors have parked themselves in the midst of Manhattan. Thousands of loonies have set up camp in a park across Wall Street and are adamant to remain there until their unknown demands are met. Mayor Bloomberg, in his classic graciousness to everyone and anything except for the cities’ residents, proudly welcomed the protestors and proclaimed | Read More »

…To many top Democrats the OWS {Occupy Wall Street} crew looks like a winning candidate as the answer to the Tea Party. Except that it isn’t. The Tea Party is comprised of working Americans who want the government to get out of their faces. They are advocates for smaller governments with less spending and more mindful of the Constitution. OWS, on the other hand, is | Read More »

Last night’s debate in New Hampshire was perhaps the best debate yet, unfortunately it was on the less watched Bloomberg channel. Every candidate had their moment in this debate, but in the end it was Mitt Romney who was in command of the evening. Now that Herman Cain is considered a top-tier candidate he is receiving the scrutiny that comes with the territory. His 9-9-9 plan | Read More »

The Bloomberg-Washington Post debate was necessary in the same way a child dying or a puppy being run over are necessary in the chaotic misery of the orbit around the center of the galaxy we slowly endure. All remind us that life isn’t fair, there are terrible tragedies, and sometimes bad things happen to us.But we have endured. And if you haven’t thrown up on | Read More »
